Paraguay: A Semi-Authoritarian Regime?

Paul C. Sondrol

University of Colorado-Colorado Springs, psondrol{at}uccs.edu

Despite the oft-touted "transitions to democracy" paradigm, in much of the world, hybrid regimes that are better-termed "semi-authoritarian" proliferate, displaying the trappings of democracy, such as elections, but not the substance of democracy. This article, utilizing the Paraguayan case, generalizes to the broader theoretical examination of these newer forms of nondemocracy, providing a counterpoint to some of the transitions literature.

Key Words: Paraguay • politics • democracy • dictatorship • transitions
